hey when did u send your passport to Ottawa?
I was at Canada post office on October 20th at 9 am in the morning, so it arrived Ottawa on Monday 24th.

My passports have arrived but I am not at home so I will have to go pick them up at post office after work.

Mine arrived on Tuesday 25th. You only have to check the tracking number for the returning envelope, have you? I'm just questioning myself if I'm doing right. I guess I'm doing but..... ;D

Are you from visa exempt country? I guess just wait and keep checking your Canada post return tracking number.

Yesterday I couldn't pick up mine at Canada post. Looks like letters have different procedures than parcels.
Usually when a parcel arrives and Canada post leaves a note at my door I can pick it up same evening but letters are delivered next day at Canada post office.

Hi guys,
Congratulations to people who have received PPR. Could you please let me know how much time CIC gives you to send your Passport? I planed to go out of Canada in February when I expect to received PPR. Just wondering if I should notify CIC before leaving. Any advice would be much appreciated.

Thanks guys!

30 days. But I am sure that if you have any kind of situation where you need to send it later, you can always send them an email explaining the situation.

Thanks 87arq for your reply. Do you know if we can send our passport to any other visa office outside of Canada?

I dont have any idea about that. I am sure you could send an email to cpc-ottawa asking them about that. I sent them an email about a problem I had and they replied in 48 hours.

Hello guys,

My landing experience!! I am officially a permanent resident of Canada!!! What a looong wait since 2013...

Anyway, for those who are going to be next.

I drove to Peace Arc Border crossing. (55 minutes from my place). I told american officer I wanted to do a flag pole, so he gave me a paper on my passports and told me to drive to the office. So I did, gave my documents inside and had to wait for about 5 minutes. (not very nice their attitude, but it´s normal with them).

So I drove back to Canadian offices and after a few questions I was told to drive in, park and go inside to line B. I gave my documents, answered only one question ´´where do you work?´´. He asked the same question to my girlfriend.

After that, we were told to wait and after 5 minutes he had all our documents ready. He went over the Permanent Resident information sheet and told us ´´congratulations´´ and gave us two flags of Canada.

So basically in 30 minutes everything was done.

Surprisingly he told us that because we are from Visa exempt country, we could fly to our countries without having to wait for PR cards. Honestly, I am not too sure about that.

Anyway, thank you everybody for the support and I really hope you guys get your PPR soon.

By the way, if you guys remember I made the mistake of sending my passport copies to the address for people who live in the USA....(I sent them again to the right address as per recommendation from CIC call Centre). Well, I also sent an email to cpc-ottawa. The replied 48 hours later saying that there was no need to resend my documents and they asked me for tracking number. On friday October 27th my application was approved and return tracking was activated. It arrived yesterday but I had to pick it up from office today.

Thank you guys.
